Chia seeds are a wonder food. The list of their health benefits is endless! “Chia” is actually the ancient Mayan word for “strength.” These little black seeds have recently surfaced as a modern-day superfood with their impressive list of nutrients.

Here are some of their benefits:

  • Loaded with antioxidants
  • High fiber content
  • Chia seeds can absorb up to 10-12 times their weight in water, becoming gel-like and expanding in your stomach (maximum health benefits are released when seeds turn into a gel)
  • Plant-based protein source
  • High in omega-3 fatty acids
  • Excellent source of calcium
  • Beneficial for those with Type 2 Diabetes as chia seeds significantly lower blood pressure

You can make this the night before and store in the fridge for an easy grab and go snack or a treat after dinner! If you’re more of a fruit person, you might want to check out this delicious recipe for Raspberry Chia Seed Pudding.
